Re: The Fallout 3 Thread Of Exploding Teddy Bears
Just finished the Pitt. MUCH better then the last DLC. I am one who actually enjoyed Operation Anchorage, but ultimately it was more of an amusing 2 hours then an actual Fallout quest. The Pitt, if you actually try to get all the achievements, for me at least was a solid 5 hours. The whole quest was amazing looking, the story was interesting, there was multiple ways to finish it, and lots of killing. If it was part of the original game, it would have been one of the high points. Easily worth 10 bucks.

Re: The Fallout 3 Thread Of Exploding Teddy Bears
Well, I liked Operation Anchorage, I mean I thought it was OK, but I'm not enjoying too much this new DLC.
I don't like that it's too dark. No sun anywhere. I got 2 achievements and with the third I'll finish the story and I've been playing for a little bit more than 1 hour!
The other achievement is finding 100 ingots and I'll leave that for later.
I usually take my time with this game, explore everywhere, ask a lot of questions to all the NPCs, etc. but this time I just didn't feel engaged in the game. Maybe I wasn't in the mood. I'll try to finish it tonight.

I like this DLC better than the previous one. I got the first achievement and was on the second quest collecting the ingots and killing Trogg's. I found some Protectrons and activated them. Then I found a supply door, and said "Ok, let's check it out."
Then the fucking game froze on me. Total bullshit. I had spent at least an hour gathering ingots and killing Trogg's and Wildmen. I am so pissed I probably won't play this again for a long time.

That sucks. I guess you hadn't saved.
I had a froze too. I had to manually turn off the Xbox. But I had just finished a fight in the Arena, so I didn't lost anything, the game autosaves after a fight.
I finished it last night, it took me around 3 hours, the last part was better than the rest and it helped the overall score. Solid B for me.

Re: The Fallout 3 Thread Of Exploding Teddy Bears
I liked this quest a lot. It still felt like Fallout 3 while adding a whole lot of stuff. I recommend to anyone that hasn't played it yet to drop as much as weight as you can before you start the mission. You'll get lots of new armors and a new weapon. My strength wasn't too high so I had to drop tons of stuff that I could've sold previously. Although bottle caps aren't really an issue anymore.
As for The Pitt

I had the autosave from entering the Steel Mill. That's it. I also had to manually turn off the Xbox.

I like their honesty about what they felt were bad ideas for Fallout3.

The next dlc raises the level cap to 30, and it makes me wonder if all the playing I have done after reaching level 20, along with the play time on the new DLC has been saved some how?

Re: The Fallout 3 Thread Of Exploding Teddy Bears
I would suggest to folks who haven't played The Pitt yet to leave behind a lot of stuff at your respective house before taking the tunnel into the Pitt. I had waaayyy too much with me and there are some good weapons and armor that I picked up along the way that I now want to keep. I might start the whole Pitt mission over so I have more space to take these back with me.
But as far as I've gotten, it has been a really good addition to the game and I'm looking forward to the next DLC package.

Re: The Fallout 3 Thread Of Exploding Teddy Bears
Quick question, i am exploring the Red Racer Factory, and there is some crazy doctor dude up in the CEO Office, but when i try to talk to him, all I can say is Goodbye, it seems like there should be more to this... Is this part of the main story line, and I just havent gotten to it yet?
Anyone help please? (without giving away to much)

It's not part of the main quest, but you can find out more about that guy if you have a high science skill. The main reason to go to the Red Racer Factory is to get Ledoux's Hockey Mask, which is one of the best if not the best headgear in the game.
Here's the full story if you want to read about it:

Re: The Fallout 3 Thread Of Exploding Teddy Bears
If anyone is having trouble finding the 100 ingots in The Pitt, here is a speed run video on where to get all of them. The video is just under 15 mins so it should be the best guide for this achievement.

Re: The Fallout 3 Thread Of Exploding Teddy Bears
Alright, last question. In the quest Head of State, i was helping the slavers, told them where the Union is, i have killed like 2 days waiting for Leroy to show up and he never does, or are they waiting for me in some hidden spot? All the people inside the union are ready for a war, but i cant find leroy or the other slavers outside anywhere and there supposed to be waiting for me... Any help where to meet them at?

I was going to the check earlier posts, but I see that it really is a long thread, 44 pages! (with standard options).
But basically, yeah, it can take a lot of time for him to show up, it's a kind of bug there. Have you checked in the metro station that is near the Lincoln memorial?
And well, yeah, check the previous posts that comment about that, a lot of people had the same issue.

Re: The Fallout 3 Thread Of Exploding Teddy Bears
FYI : It appears that the game guide to Fallout 3 is ringing up for $9.99 at Circuit City now. I brought a copy up to checkout and asked for a price scan and that's what showed up -- no coupon given or extra purchase done. At that price, it's gotta be worth getting, right?

Sweet! I've been playing through the regular game and haven't downloaded any of the expansions yet. 
It's nice to know that when I'm ready I should be able to get all three and beef out my character even more!
